Chapter Seventy-Nine: Some People Rejoice and Some People Are Worried
In mid-August, the scorching sun was scorching, and as hot as the weather, Lin Xuan's first single.
August 19th.
Lin Xuan's single sales are out again.
Compared with yesterday's sales, there has been a certain drop.
Yesterday, all aspects of the momentum reached its peak, his songs suddenly entered the audience's field of vision, people who like Lin Xuan's songs have bought the album, sales will naturally usher in a big explosion, a boom and then decline, and then it is very normal to fall.
However, the total sales of the three songs still increased by 6.21 million.
By August 20, the total sales had increased by 4.55 million.
On August 21, the total sales volume increased by 3.45 million.
On August 22, the total sales volume increased by 1.87 million.
So far, the first-week sales of Lin Xuan's three songs have been officially released, with a total of 31.47 million.
Among them, "It's Dawn" sold 11.57 million, "Life is more than what is in front of you" sold 10.38 million, and "Alive" sold 9.52 million.
"It's Dawn" and "Life Is More Than Present" both exceeded 10 million sales, although most of the sales have been harvested in the first week, and they have become diamond singles.
According to the past trend, it is almost a sure thing that the final sales of "Alive" will exceed 10 million.
In addition, the average number of singles purchased per person has further decreased to 3.5.
In other words, Lin Xuan's song sales are piled up by the majority of listeners, and the sales are very healthy.
As for Cai Fan's final three songs, the total sales of a total of 203.2 million copies were originally very good, but with the comparison with Lin Xuan, it suddenly looked bleak.
Moreover, because of the fight with Lin Xuan, it has set off a national reflection on traffic, Cai Fan has not been very comfortable for a while, and his reputation has been affected to a certain extent, so that his endorsement price and salary have also been reduced.
The general manager of Orange Sky Records is going to regret it.
At the beginning, he insisted on letting Cai Fan and Lin Xuan fight, on the one hand, because Lin Xuan's remarks on the Internet at that time had caused some negative effects on Cai Fan, intentionally or unintentionally, and just as Lin Xuan's album was about to be launched, he also refused the request of Yang Li, the general manager of Fengxing Records, to misformulate the date of the film, and decided to teach Lin Xuan a lesson.
In his opinion, Cai Fan's fan base is very fixed and loyal, and it will have no impact on Cai Fan's single sales in any case, but it will definitely have a certain impact on Lin Xuan's sales, so why not.
But he never expected such an ending.
Who would have thought that Lin Xuan would have such a comical operation, and made up a "The Story of the King of Singers", which caused widespread discussion, and then Qin Chu posted an article, plus the (People's) Daily entered, so that things were out of control.
At present, the sales of Cai Fan's first single are not bad, meeting the company's expectations, but it has had a big impact on Cai Fan's reputation.
For Orange Sky Entertainment, Cai Fan's income from singles only accounts for a small part of his commercial value, most of which comes from endorsement activities and variety shows.
In today's information age, the market reacts very quickly, and sometimes after a celebrity breaks out a scandal, all kinds of endorsements will stop immediately, and even have to bear a certain amount of liquidated damages, which are written into the contract in advance.
Although Cai Fan's is not a scandal, the reputation of the audience has indeed been greatly affected.
When people mention Cai Fan now, they often have the preconceived impression that the traffic idol who plays against Lin Xuan has no strength and will only show off in front of the TV.
Therefore, now Cai Fan's endorsement price has dropped directly, and some big brands that were originally interested in contacting Cai Fan are not directly considering Cai Fan, and the invitations to variety shows have become significantly less.
It's all money!
In the past few days, the general manager of Orange Sky Entertainment has been very irritable, and there is basically no smile on his face, and he can't breathe when he thinks of the money that flows away like flowing water.
"Why didn't I miss the film date?"
When the general manager of Orange Sky Entertainment thought of this, he couldn't wait to slap himself twice.
Moreover, after being named and criticized by official media like (People's) Daily, Cai Fan will inevitably keep a low profile for a while, because traffic idols are much faster than singers and actors who are serious about updating and iterating.
When the follow-up talent show comes out, there are younger and more handsome faces, and they are easily replaced.
Orange Sky Entertainment picked up Cai Fan, and originally wanted to take advantage of his popularity to make a handful of money.
But now, Cai Fan, who was already in full swing, has been affected in all aspects, and his ability to make money has directly declined.
Now, the general manager of Orange Sky Entertainment can only hope that there will not be any new popular idols in the near future, so that as the company slowly publicizes and allows Cai Fan to participate in some public welfare activities to accumulate some audience favorability, after this period of limelight, Cai Fan can make a comeback and continue to create benefits for the company.
……
Compared with Cai Fan's great decline, Lin Xuan can be said to be infinitely beautiful.
August 22nd.
First of all, Penguin Music hung a banner on the homepage: Lin Xuan's first singles sold 31.47 million in the first week, breaking the sales record for digital singles.
Secondly, "It's Dawn" and "Life is More Than Present" sold more than 10 million and became diamond singles.
Since the advent of digital albums, there have been no more than five diamond singles in the entire country, most of which are the theme songs sung by the old-school kings and queens for a blockbuster movie.
This time, two songs in Lin Xuan's single became diamond singles, and it was only a matter of time before "Alive" exceeded 10 million sales and became diamond singles.
At that time, a single and three songs will all become diamond singles, which is the first time since there was a digital album.
In the past, Lin Xuan's songs were only very popular on the Internet, but some people always said that he was an Internet celebrity, and now, he relied on real sales to successfully break the circle and become a super-grossing singer in one fell swoop, and in the future, no one can attack him with the word Internet celebrity.
Subsequently, the major portals also reacted quickly, pushing the news that Lin Xuan's sales had broken records, two more songs had been added to Huaguo Diamond's digital single, and the third song was about to be born.
This news also immediately became a hot news on Weibo, causing heated discussions among netizens.
Lin Xuan's Weibo comment area was hot.
"Boss Lin's sales broke records, double diamond singles, and the people of Xiangbei sent congratulatory messages. ”
"Boss Lin's sales broke records, double diamond singles, and the people of Shaanxi Province sent congratulatory messages. ”
“……”
So far, although Lin Xuan has not thought about becoming a star, his identity as a songwriter and singer has been recognized by the mainstream music circle, and he can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in the music world.
